Day for Rush and Travel - Multi tasking

Wednesday, April 28, 2010
up
at 5am, out of bed 5:30

Got mails from the post box, kind of far to go get my mail.
But was glad that I did as I got a post card from Sara B, who sent it from Italy. So sweet and thought full of her. Had circumstances been better I would probably have dated her. But she is sweet and nice, would not want to break her heart at any cost. And its not fair as my heart is still with Eva. Thou Eva did say many times that no one will replace me and all those very many dialouges, I am now not sure, if she just said it at that moment. And like all her many boyfriends, I am just another who gets replaced after a month. Seems like she is having something going on there with Ritish Jain.
In the pics it looks like he is chasing her. And his expressions tells me he is just pursing her as just another part time entertainment. Well i did warn her once at Ossoyos about short term and long terms. Can't be there for her everytime. And now that she does not want any communication, only her own good deeds or karma will help her for becoming another wandering superficial person, who is more like the pot smoking gypsies visiting India for free sex and drugs.

did a bit of packing of my documents that I would need during the transit between . Not taking anything else. maybe get a couple of suitcases back.

Have to see how this will all turn out.

Also thanks to Sara B for the lovely Card from Italy and making me smile today.. :))) Gratzi bella bambina ! :)
hehehe,, pic of Bridge of the Devil.. Tanti Abbracciii,, !

@ work by 8am went to the shuttle pick up @ 7:30am
9:30 to 12 load testing

9:30 was at the war room ready for the attack on the load testing for Release 18 (R18). couple of cuties there. hmmm. one a blond and very sweet. the other looked like a diva.

Well after about 1 hr the testing was over with a few glitches, I would call it kind of organized chaos.

There turned out to be a bug there, that came up when the agents were replying to emails. and when the call came in did not allow the screen pop only allowed it in when the email was wrapped up.

The Avaya guy, don't know his name, kind of had an Aussie ascent.
was trying to figure out the probs at the avaya end. I on my end did not even know that the agents answered the emails.

Anyways got out of the center by 12:30 and was trying to complete the tasks at hand, calling up station sq for the chek to made out too. Then Fry wagonr for any more documentations needed, then filling up the ctsh time sheet,
and was told that the merck time sheets need to filled up too.
So checked for remote log in access, which was not there in my system. Called up help desk, Edgar in mexico city (merck mexico employee) answers the call and he remotes into my system. Takes about 1 hr before he finishes installing and then me cross-verifying.... not sure if it will work outside, can only test it latter.
Almost 2 now. need to get to the airport. ITs about 2 hrs of travelling.
Then started the race to finish the SAP CATS course. after finishing we needed 80% to qualify,, ahhh after a few attempts got 83% and sent msg to ajit.
2:10 go upto the war room and have a talk with the Avaya guy, who now seems to have something up with a partial swift of responsibility on to my plate. And when I proposed another possible resolution, he kind of tried to shoot it down with saying that it could interfere with secondary calls coming in, which I doubt is a possibility. as these people do not have the secondary call comming in or secondary ph number set up.
Anyways tell him that I am heading home and will try to work on that remotely.

2:25 rush to catch the shuttle. takes about 30 mins to reach home. The another rush to put in the check for next months rent. Then rush home pack the docs needed and have rice with yogurt and barely make it to the penbrook station.
Take transfer at market st in downtown philly to the airport train.
@ terminal D get the boarding pass and there is a huge line up for getting thru security. phew, make it past security with out an hasseles, unlike the Vancouver airport where all the security people seem to have something against Indian looking 5:45 get into the Terminal D and wait for the flight. feeling hungry, saw a voice msg from narayan reddy. Yet to get the money out for his visa processing.
call him back and leave a voice msg.

Kannan calls me up to see if I made it to the airport. that was very nice of him. There are few nice people in the world.

Got call back from narayan and scolding me for not having taken the money he offered. :(

Got into the Air jazz plane, for the first time in my life I had a very pretty gal sitting besides me wearing mini skirts. Cute smile and looked like a bookish gal. great sexy legs, must be well maintained. still like evas legs over hers. But this gal I am sure had a head shower every day, cause her hairs looked wel maintained too. Then on top of all that saw the ring on her ring finger. awww the good ones are always taken.

For the connecting flight it was a race. It was at 10:45 and for some reason after I landed there I thought it was already 10:15, when it was only 9:15. Raced thru customs, got stopped for not fully filling it up, twice... kind of did not see the boxes that needed to be filled.

then the run to the terminal. Getting past the security check again. But this time got into the nexus pass lane and was granted faster access. More time cause I was traveling with two lap tops.

Go have a beer and slowly de-stress now that I am out of US soil.

Then was the 1st to board the flight... long haul. And again there is a pretty chinese gal from Toronto besides me, who turns out to be a long distance runner and is going for meeting her cousins and particepate in the mini-marathon about 22 kms....wow.
Then another surprise, she dances salsa.. mama mio.

Get to watch TV onboard and thanks to the hands free by Apple's iphone, I get to hear the dialogues too, unlike Cathay, not many give out head sets for free.
